REVIEW ON SMART HELMET USED FOR ACCIDENT SAFETY

Abstract

The impact when a motorcyclist involved in a high speed accident without wearing a helmet is very dangerous and can cause fatality. Wearing a helmet can reduce the impact shock and can save a life. There are several countries that impose a law requiring the operator of the motorcycle to wear a helmet while riding on their motorcycle, an example being Malaysia. For this purpose, this project is explicitly planned to improve the safety of the rider's motorcycle. If the speed limit is surpassed, motorcyclists are alarmed. A Force Sensing Resistor (FSR) and a BLDC Fan are used to detect the head of the rider and to detect the speed of the motorcycle. Road accidents mostly from bikes are increasing in India day by day, due to not wearing of helmet by bike riders most of the accidents are caused, drink and drive and over speeding which may leads to severe injuries or death due to lack of medical treatments provided to the injured person at right time because they are not in position to make a call to their relative or doctor by sending accurate GPS coordinates.
